You shouldn't have to do this as we have built in detection for Flatpak's filepaths now. The problem is, though, that even though we can patch Flatpak installs now, they aren't working because of CEF's inability to launch inside of bubblewrap, the container Flatpak's run inside of.

If you had to make a symlink for the executable to run successfully, there may be something strange about your configuration that's not accounted for, such as a leftover appmanifest from an old Steam installation. Even so, patching won't do much for Flatpak users, though it is possible.

Should be fixed as of the latest release
